 Hi Folks,
 
 
 I was trying to use virt-manager on one of the hosts being managed by
 the ovirt-manager. It asks for some authentication to connect to
 libvirt. I get the same thing when I tried to connect via virsh.As I
 understand , VDSM acquires a lock over libvirt. But is it possible to
 connect to libvirt (may be only read-only) ?. What authentication does
 it require ? how do I get the credentials. ? 

Access using virsh -r should work without credentials.  As for where to
get the credentials, I don't know that you can.  If you can access
virsh/virt-manager, etc, without readonly access, you end up with split
brain issues since you have multiple things that can issue management
commands.

1) For read only access,
you can try virsh -c qemu:///system -r
2)For read write access
you can try virsh -c qemu:system,  then input authentication
